BAIL? This judge is an idiot.
He is classified as innocent until proven guilty, ok?
Honestly;
To rebottle with this comment, you must not have a daughter. We do know the law. In this case you should have just ??????
What is a rebottle?
Probably meant rebuttle
Or rebuttal.
wow what is going on Bermuda!!!!!!
He could have been granted permission to attend the funeral wearing the electronic bracelet but made to return to prison until his next court date. He should not have been granted bail considering the circumstances.
why cant he be named? they name people for having 0.5 grams of cannabis on them but not this guy? something is seriously wrong…
Protection of the victim.
Now that is the best comment and adjudication you have ever made.
Shalom.
There seems to be Some Serz,,Problems
when it comes to Sex Offenses in Bermuda
way too much going on in that Dept,,Alot
of men need Help,,,
actually it is a two way street.
This is a result of 30-40 years of non parenting and just having sex.
One only has to look at the single parents in Bermuda and 80% are headed by females.
Where have all the men gone one might ask.
Looking for another playoff on the ’18th hole’.
I am totally for protecting the victims of these crimes, but when they find these men guilty, there needs to be a name and shame list along with their photos. This may assist families in protecting their children from becoming future victims. Too much emphasis is placed on criminals’ rights. When they impede on the rights of others, these convicted criminals need to lose their rights. Most victims never recover from the crimes committed against them, but these criminals are out within a short period of incarceration, and usually reoffend. Something to think about OBA.
